Connection profiles. Data coming in on the DLCI specified in the first Connection profile
switches to the DLCI configured in the second one.
Configuring the logical link to a Frame Relay switch
The Frame Relay profile specifies a link, usually across a single cable, to the Frame Relay
network. This link can support many permanent virtual circuits (PVCs), each with a different
endpoint. The following example shows the Frame Relay parameters:

Understanding the Frame Relay parameters
This section provides some background information about the Frame Relay parameters. For
more information about each of the parameters, see the MAX Reference Guide.
Specifying a profile name and activating the profile
User connections link up with the Frame Relay connection specified in the relevant profile by
specifying the profile’s name. The name must be unique and cannot exceed 15 characters.
Set the Active parameter to Yes to make the profile available for use.
Bringing down the datalink when DLCIs are not active
The LinkUp parameter (MAX 4000 platforms) specifies whether the data link comes up
automatically and stays up even when the last DLCI has been removed. If you set this
